Blender to Ultimate 3D export plugin

This is an export plugin for the open source modeling software Blender. It can be used to create Ultimate 3D model files (*.u3d) directly from Blender models. It supports everything a game developer usually needs. Skinned meshes, materials with textures and armatures with animations and constraints. For more information please refer to the help file.

Ultimate 3D Model Viewer 1.1

The Ultimate 3D Model Viewer is a simplistic program that can be used to open, view and modify models saved in six different model file formats (*.3ds, *.an8, *.md2, *.ms3d, *.u3d, *.x). Modified models can be saved as Ultimate 3D model files (*.u3d).

It can be used to modify the geometry and the materials of models. By precomputing data like LoDs and shadow optimized geometry in the Ultimate 3D Model Viewer you can reduce the loading time of your Ultimate 3D application.

To supply you with a comfortable user interface the Ultimate 3D Model Viewer is based upon the Microsoft .net Framework 2.0. For that reason you need to have the .net Framework 2.0 installed on your PC. If you have not installed it yet you can download it directly from Ultimate3D.org. The download size of the .net Framework is 23 MB.

Ultimate 3D Vegetation Creator

This utility can be used to automatically create rudimentary vegetation for terrains (like bushes and shrubs). The vegetation gets computed automatically based upon given information. Every piece of vegetation (e.g. every bush) is individual and by default it uses a vertex shader that makes it move in the wind. The resulting vegetation can be saved to a set of Ultimate 3D model files (*.u3d). It has been used to create the bushes in the Tech Demo.

To supply you with a comfortable user interface the Vegetation Creator is based upon the Microsoft .net Framework 2.0. For that reason you need to have the .net Framework 2.0 installed on your PC. If you haven't installed it yet you can download it directly from Ultimate3D.org. The download size of the .net Framework is 23 MB.

Ultimate 3D Studio

I made a user friendly nice modeling program that imports models from files and export them as u3d.

This utility can be used for two purposes: Creating sprites for models and creating sphere maps for spherical environment mapping (a technique to create simple reflections).
